REITER, 310 Broad Selecting Teachers by Uhance, The recent election of school teachers re- vives the discussion as to the peculiar meth- ods by which the elections are made. It was hoped that there would be a reform this year, but the old method was followed out. Each member of the board nominated his alloted number of teachers, and of course no one would v inst the nominations made by a brother member. It amounted, as it always Las, to each member choosing & certain num- ber of teachers. Iven members of the board regret that certain tried and successiul teachors have been left out this ) The cause of this seems to be the pécubar method by which teachers are: selected. = Each mem- ber in turn would nomivate a teache and would leave it to some oue else to aomi- Bale sowe oue else.
